CANOLIGHT's SOB LED strip light utilizes advanced silicon-on-board technology, which encapsulates the LEDs within a flexible silicon medium to produce an exceptionally uniform light output. Unlike conventional COB strips, SOB construction offers improved light diffusion and higher luminous performance per metre, resulting in a seamless, dot-free illumination that rivals the look of expensive linear fixtures. The strip maintains a high CRI rating, ensuring that colours in your home appear rich, natural, and true to life — an important consideration for kitchens, bathrooms, and living areas.
Thermal management is a critical factor in LED longevity, and this strip light is engineered with an efficient heat dissipation design that keeps operating temperatures low. The flexible PCB construction works in conjunction with the silicon encapsulation to draw heat away from the LED chips, significantly extending the lifespan of the strip and maintaining consistent lumen output over thousands of hours of operation. When paired with a compatible, high-quality efficient LED driver, the system delivers stable, flicker-free performance that protects both your eyes and your investment.
This strip light is cUL/CSA approved, meeting the strict safety and performance standards required for installation in Canadian residential and commercial applications. Its IP rating provides protection against dust and moisture, making it suitable for a range of installation environments including kitchens, bathrooms, and covered outdoor areas. The strip is also designed to comply with applicable energy efficiency guidelines, helping you reduce electricity consumption compared to traditional halogen or fluorescent lighting alternatives.
Installation is straightforward thanks to the strip's flexible design and designated cut points that allow precise customization to your project dimensions. The strip can be mounted using standard aluminium channels or applied directly to clean, dry surfaces with its adhesive backing. It is compatible with a range of dimmable LED drivers and standard dimming controls, giving you full command over brightness levels and ambiance. For best results, pair with a CANOLIGHT-recommended driver and consult a licensed electrician to ensure your installation meets local Canadian electrical codes and requirements.
